House Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) is taking his dog and pony show to Manhattan today in an effort to curry favor with indicted former president Donald Trump, and he got one hell of a welcome from New Yorkers as his “field hearing” began.
Jordan claims the purpose of the hearing is to focus on crime in Manhattan and failures allegedly made by the borough’s district attorney, Alvin Bragg, who indicted Trump on 34 counts of falsifying business records last month.
According to Punchbowl News correspondent Mica Soellner, Jordan was greeted by New Yorkers by calls for the Ohio Republican to be indicted for treason.
The hearing could also wind up being humiliating for Jordan in other ways, according to political analyst Matthew Dowd, who said Sunday during an appearance on MSNBC:
“If he really wanted to find out answers to the unanswered questions about crime, then hold it on the Ohio State University campus and ask about the sexual abuse scandals that occurred while he was the wrestling coach. That would be a more formal and more interesting thing to find out undiscovered information.”
